Wastewater Treatment by Aerobic Systems

 High BOD,

COD and nutrients removal

 >>>>>

Microorganism growth = Excess sludge

slide-3
SLIDE 3

Excess Microorganisms

Activated Excess Sludge

 Excess sludge is

wasted (WAS)

  • Slowly

biodegradable

  • rganics/ or limited

BOD

Endogenous respiration Reduction of Volatile Solids

Objective

To assess the active biomass fraction in SBR systems for small communities

Activated Sludge Monitoring

  • Specific Oxygen

Uptake Rate (SOUR)

  • Temperature
  • pH
  • MLSS, MLVSS

  • The SBR systems can be a good solution for

wastewater treatment for small communities- BOD removal higher than 80%.

  • Sludge treatment (MLVSS) can be achieved in

the SBR system itself:

  • MLVSS reduction and stabilization;
  • Improved SVI
  • However, increase in MLSS (non organic)
